Birla Cellulose, Cellulosic Fibres division of Grasim Industries Ltd is pleased to announce the signing of a Joint Development Agreement (JDA) with LNJ Bhilwara Group Companies (RSWM Limited & TACC Limited) as the next step forward in the development of graphene technology for textile applications.

Graphene, a single layer of carbon atoms in a hexagonal lattice, is known for its exceptional strength, conductivity, and lightweight properties, with applications in electronics, energy storage, coatings, composites, construction materials, and textiles.

Under this collaboration:

  • TACC Limited will supply graphene derivatives to Birla Cellulose
  • Birla Cellulose will integrate TACC’s graphene derivatives into the production of viscose fibres.
  • RSWM Limited will use these graphene-enhanced viscose fibres for textile manufacturing

This collaboration is set to evaluate textile innovation, integrating graphene’s remarkable properties into fabrics, enhancing durability, performance, and sustainability.
